websites on Firefox think that I am in Austria. I am in Ayer, Ma and only read Vienna News at times. Amazon and other sites (pop-ups) think that I will pay in euros and read ads in german. How can I correct this?

That shouldn't happen unless you are using VPN that changes your IP address to one registered in Austria.

Is this problem on websites that do not have access to your location -- either didn't ask or you declined permission -- or even on websites where you granted permission to access your precise location?
